wedding invitation

Ceremony attendance request

A wedding invitation is a formal request for someone to attend a wedding ceremony and often the reception that follows.

These typically arrive by mail weeks or months before the event and include details about date, time, location, and how to respond.

The phrase also refers to the physical card or paper itself: The wedding invitations were printed on cream-colored stock.

To receive one implies social inclusion in the couple's celebration.
